+7. KVM_HC_ROE
+----------------
+Architecture: x86
+Status: active
+Purpose: Hypercall used to apply Read-Only Enforcement to guest memory and
+registers
+Usage 1:
+     a0: ROE_VERSION
+
+Returns non-signed number that represents the current version of ROE
+implementation current version.
+
+Usage 2:
+
+     a0: ROE_MPROTECT	(requires version >= 1)
+     a1: Start address aligned to page boundary.
+     a2: Number of pages to be protected.
+
+This configuration lets a guest kernel have part of its read/write memory
+converted into read-only.  This action is irreversible.
+Upon successful run, the number of pages protected is returned.
+
+Error codes:
+	-KVM_ENOSYS: system call being triggered from ring 3 or it is not
+	implemented.
+	-EINVAL: error based on given parameters.
+
+Notes: KVM_HC_ROE can not be triggered from guest Ring 3 (user mode). The
+reason is that user mode malicious software can make use of it to enforce read
+only protection on an arbitrary memory page thus crashing the kernel.
